Beskrivelse
Around 100 of the most beautiful prints from the heyday of Japanese
woodblock printing are shown in this first publication featuring a
previously little-known treasure, a highlight of the Kupferstichkabinett
collection at Kunstmuseum Basel. These are iconic works by artists such
as Hiroshige and Hokusai, whose impressions of both city and
countryside shape our idea of Japan.
In the richly illustrated
catalogue accompanying the exhibition, they can be found alongside
colourful works by once equally famous artists such as Utamaro, Sharaku,
Kunisada and Kuniyoshi. These are based around the world of Kabuki
theatre and actors, everyday and heroic stories, or ideally beautiful
female figures and provide some striking finds of rare works that will
surprise not only interested Japanese woodblock print enthusiasts but
also the experts.
